During an examination, his doctor instructed him to drink eight glasses of liquid laxative every 10-15 minutes for two hours. “I used a notepad to tally the number of drinks, and a stopwatch to keep track of time. Then I decided that there should be an app for that.” ”Source:http://bit.ly/QfIXBDUsage: Not specifiedWeblink of reviewer:http://www.wellapps.com
